Le Régent International School

What Le Régent International School does

Le Régent International School is a private international boarding and day school located in Crans-Montana, in the Swiss canton of Valais, founded in 2015. It serves approximately 260 students aged 2 to 18 from more than 50 nationalities, supported by 80+ teachers of whom roughly two-thirds are full-time academic staff on English-speaking programmes. The school operates a purpose-built campus at 1,500 meters altitude in the Swiss Alps and offers a continuous academic pathway from Preschool through Junior School and Senior School (Middle Years Programme, Pre-IB, and the IB Diploma Programme), supplemented by boarding houses, EAL support, Learning Support, and University Guidance services.

The school's pedagogical framework is the proprietary h³ model (head, heart, hand), rooted in Johann Heinrich Pestalozzi's philosophy, which integrates intellectual, emotional, and practical development. The school is an Apple Distinguished School, a CIS member, an IB World School, and part of the Rosey World Commonwealth — a strategic partnership formed in 2019 with Le Rosey and John F. Kennedy School. Co-curricular offerings include sports, music, arts, outdoor education, service leadership, and the separately operated Regent Camps summer programme.

Le Régent generates revenue primarily through recurring annual tuition fees, with day tuition ranging from CHF 17,750 (Preschool) to CHF 50,400 (IB Diploma) and boarding tuition ranging from CHF 86,850 to CHF 119,070. International families are recruited through a global admissions team that travels to education fairs, supported by a self-serve online application portal and digital marketing channels. The school's pricing is publicly disclosed, and a non-refundable CHF 3,000 registration fee accompanies applications.
